The texture of a metamorphic rock gives indications as to the temperatures and pressure involved in metamorphism.

• True

• False

Like igneous rocks, many metamorphic rocks form from melted material.

• True

• False

Pressure usually causes long minerals to align.

• True

• False

Schist is a nonfoliated metamorphic rock.

• True
